This clip shows a real lecture where Personal Response System and interactive teaching with peer instruction are used effectively in Physics teaching. For those teaching large classes and/or Science and Engineering this is a great demonstration of the technique.

This blog post shares students views' on mobile learning from a survey carried out at the University of Liverpool. One of the most interesting aspects of this post is the summary of student views in response to the question; 'How would you expect to use mobile devices at University?'

Thomas thank you for sharing. I wonder whether digital natives and "others" would have different opinion? Also I can not guess on how much of a difference would UG students have to part time PG students. Do you have any idea on that or maybe a good resource to look at?

This academic paper discusses strategies for encouraging first year undergraduate students to participate in online discussion. It looks at Salmon's five stage model to engage students and the responsibility that lecturers have to initiate purposeful activities that promote community development.

Thomas, it seems that there has been lot of thoughts on UG. Have you found any info on PG students as well?

This blog post shares some concise guidelines for strategies to engage learners using mobile phones. The author makes the valuable point that just making content available on mobile devices through responsive design, does not mean that learners will engage with it. You also have to consider designing learning activities suited to the devices.
